Graduate Profile of Dana Hoffman, MSOM, L.Ac., Dipl. L.Ac. (NCCAOM)

Most rewarding aspect of practice: Problem solving was always my motivation to practice acupuncture. I love using thousands of years of established theory and medicine to tackle contemporary illness. You can elicit change so quickly and make it long-lasting, while always working on the preventative aspect for future disease. The most gratifying case to date has been restoring significant and quantifiable amounts of vision for a patient with Stargardt's, an autoimmune eye disease. But the victories are numerous every day. I also practice psycho-emotional acupuncture, which is releasing the stagnation in a controlled manner and allowing a patient a safe environment to repair from past trauma.
